I had yet to try one of their sandwiches and saw this location for the first time during a break from work (I'm back downtown twice a week now). I ordered the Chicken Caesar with grilled chicken. For $16 you get a lot of sandwich. It is huge, cut in half and is enough for 2 people, or two meals. Very tasty and I would get it again. read more

Warios Beef and Pork in downtown Columbus is home to one of the best sandwiches I've ever had! I got the crispy chicken caesar salad sandwich with a side of Wario sauce. It was MASSIVE- great portion size. The chicken was tender and juicy, the tomato butter was earthy and tangy and the lettuce was crisp. The Wario sauce was an indulgent garlic aioli w/ caramelized onions- so yummy! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe was super casual and the service was friendly and fast.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

We stopped at Wario's during our weekend getaway and were not disappointed. My significant other and I split a cheesesteak, and it was fantastic. The meat was flavorful, the bread was perfect, and the long hots took it to another level. They added just the right amount of heat and flavor. We also ordered the spuds, and they were incredible. The creamy garlic sauce was absolutely delicious and made them hard to stop eating. Parking is on the street, but we had no trouble finding a spot. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There were also plenty of tables available, making it easy to sit down and enjoy our meal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great food, generous portions, and a casual atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We'd definitely stop back the next time we're in the area. read more

My partner and I took a day trip from Cincinnati and one of the most recommended restaurants is Warios! We came on a Saturday afternoon, hours before any sports game, and easily found cheap street parking nearby. There is an order counter inside and we only had to wait several minutes. If we would have come even 20 minutes later, we would have to wait in line to order and pick up! [[HIGHLIGHT]]There are tables inside the building but were all full so we are outside on a nice, sunny day.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We split the chicken cutlet sandwich and spuds. The portion sizes were large and we even had leftovers. The potatoes and chicken cutlets were cooked perfectly crispy! read more

If you're a fan of cheese steak sandwiches, then this is a must try spot. I'm not a huge fan, but I do like them. It's more of a couple of years indulge for me. The portions and taste are spot on. So, if you start craving some cheesy meat and onions on a bun, this is a must try spot. read more

Very good sandwiches! Thought they almost lived up to the hype but really enjoyed them. The portions are huge and the sauces are good! The potatoes are also good. Not good seating for the winter but it was fine. Service was quick. Would come back. read more

Wandered over from my hotel and saw this not so hidden gem. Got the chicken cutlet and the sandwich I received was probably the biggest chicken cutlet sub I've ever bought (was wondering the 17$ price tag but immediately answered. This sub could feed two very hungry people easily. Fry was perfect not overly greasy, the sauce and peppers were rich and delicious. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This is one of those places that will have a line out the door on peak nights.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would go again but I don't think I'll get hungry ever again after that. read more

I've had this place on my list for a while. Excited to try it. First, the sandwiches are HUGE. You can share one for two people. Trust me. The Steak Wario's Way is decadent. The cheese and the bread hits the spot. We were all hungry and it was great. The pork was ok, but next to the steak, it's not as great. Potatoes are yummy. Again, you can share. Don't go crazy. Staff was very kind. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Location is hard to find parking and seats are a hot commodity at the busy times but easily navigated.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

We got to town early for a Jackets game and gave Warios a try. They did not disappoint. I ordered the Warios way steak and my wife had the falafel. The guy at the counter was happy to help her get everything vegan and the food was amazing. I found this in my drafts and we have been back at least 5 times. Nothing changes top notch food and friendly people. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Seating on the patio is nice in the warmer months but can be a challenge when it's cold.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I finally made it in to Wario's for lunch, and I thank the old gods and the new that I did. [[HIGHLIGHT]]What flavor! What amazing character this place has. What aromas tantalized my nose as I waited.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]A camaraderie quickly formed among those of us in line, as regulars (experienced Warians) shared tips and recommendations with us newbies.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I got the cheese steak and (crispy) chicken cutlet Caesar, plus an order of Warios spuds - crispy perfect potatoes with killer dipping sauce. Everything was ridonculously perfect. Like, out of this world good. Be sure to ask about off-menu daily specials! [[HIGHLIGHT]]You order at the window, your food is made to order and then you feast - either at a few tables there or outside or in your car.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The way everything smelled... sweet fancy Moses. I had to pull over and start tasting things, I couldn't make it home! I'll definitely be back. This place is worth all the hype - and then some! read more

Now I know what all the hype is, this place is FANTASTIC!!! Who needs to go to Philly to get a cheesesteak when there is Warios here in Columbus. Lets talk about how ginormous these cheesesteaks are. You could honestly share one with your spouse, kids, friends, coworkers....the person sitting next to you. Or just keep it for yourself for lunch/dinner later. . This place spent skip a beat. They were crank your food like their pants were on fire. The service was excellent, answered all my questions about the menu without being exasperated. The line to order moves super fast which was very surprising. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a small space, but it somehow fits everyone inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I can't believe I haven't posted a review of my favorite sandwich spot in Columbus yet, but Wario's is a MUST visit! They have the biggest & baddest sandwiches in the city, and are serving up crazy cool sandwiches you won't be able to find anywhere else! Every single thing I've had from here has been incredible! The Sunday meatball is hands down my favorite, with the grilled Caesar being a close second! The cold cut is an amped up version of the classic deli sub, & the vodka sauce on the chicken cutlet is a game changer! Be sure to check their pages on the daily, to make sure you don't miss out on their amazing specials! read more

Absolute Columbus staple. It's my main comfort meal whenever I'm in the mood for a treat meal. The Wario's way sandwich is so indulgent and hands down my favorite menu item. read more

If you love large subs stuffed well and served piping hot then you need to give this place a try. We ordered the Cheesesteak the wario way. The cheese wiz on it is had to explain beyond ooey gooey goodness! The grilled onions are perfection. The buns get high marks for the sesame seeds. I love those! We also ordered the Chicken Caesar with the crispy chicken. Everything about it was spot on. Plenty of romaine, dressing and fresh grated cheese wrapped around those crispy chicken strips. It was delicious. I think it may have even edged out the cheesesteak in my opinion which surprised me. For a place that you walk up to the counter and place your order we were served quickly. Waited less than 5 minutes for our order and we weren't the only ones there. [[HIGHLIGHT]]You can sit inside or at tables outside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We sat long enough to share half of each sub and then wrapped them back up and headed to our next stop. As for the half of each sub that we took home, the chicken sub was great cold the next day. We heated the cheesesteak just enough to take the chill off and it may have been even better than day one. So leftovers are just as good as freshly served. read more

Fantastic!! Philly is cheesy, wholesome, & and unmatched classic. Loved the Classic Chicken Cutlet sandwich: unique veggies & perfectly breaded, fried chicken cutlet. Can't go wrong with potatoes, especially the House Spuds [parm & garlic on whole mini potatoes]. I would come back if in the area again. read more

2ND Time going to Warios. THEY DON'T MISS. 1st time Clintonville Got "The Steak" warios way 2nd time downtown. Chicken Cutlet. I have a new local favorite. The owner was taking orders on the phone. Handing out in-stone and online/pickups. A customer asked about cleaning a table that was apparently dirty and the owner came out and wiped them both down. Washed his hands and Went back to frontline. Great food and service. I will be back read more

The North Market is a great place to stop by for lunch if you are in Downtown Columbus. There are so many tasty options, but Warios was one of my favorites. While I have had a genuine Philly Cheesesteak, including from Pat's, I cannot judge the authenticity of the sandwich, but will say that it is really good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There are plenty of tables upstairs if you do not intend to take the food to go.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I will certainly consider stopping here again the next time I am in Columbus (even though there are still a few restaurants in the market that I would like to try). read more

This is the type of sandwich shop you wish had a place in every city you go to. Fresh rolls and huge sandwiches, better come here with an empty stomach. Feels like a hole in the wall shop but you can tell they push out tons of sandwiches each day, all with tons of flavor. Tried the chicken Caesar and the cheesesteak, both of which were great. Felt like there was about 3 pounds of chicken on the roll! House spuds were freshly cooked and made for the perfect side. read more

Wow the sandwich was massive! I had the Philly Warios Way. Little did I know how big the sandwich would be, I also ordered the spuds as a side. Let's just say that I had leftovers for the next day!! My son recommended to me so now I will recommend to y'all if you are ever in Columbus.

Finally tired Wario's after hearing (and seeing) all the hype online... I hate that I really didn't feel overwhelmed by it. The ingredients are for sure fresh, great bread, and fun combos but the flavor wasn't really there. I ordered the pork with rapini and it just didn't really taste like anything to me especially for $35 for 2 sandwiches. My BF got the cheesesteak which was better in terms of flavor but felt like it really was coming from the cheez whiz. Great service and filling lunch option just not my style or what I was expecting with the hype. read more

The philly cheesesteak was phenomenal, the chicken caesar sandwich needed a little more salad though. Overall, a really yummy lunch! read more

Warios Beef and Pork - The Steak Sandwich, Chicken Caesar Sandwich - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Hands down the most authentic Philly steak / Philly Pork I've had outside of Philly. Wario's is the ONLY place to go. Amazing product. Their rolls are out of this world. (can't have a great sandwich w/out S tier bread) this place delivers. I love the steak but much like a good Philly shop - the roast pork is even better. They only give one small side of jus for the pork. The sandwich needs 2. (I hope they read this....really needs 2 of their small containers) Every time I go to Columbus I stop at Wario's. read more

When my daughter invited me out for lunch, it is proper etiquette in my book to say. Yes with a joyous appreciative smile. And thus began lunch at Warios Beef & Pork, a Midwestern franchise sandwich shop. I'm figuring that it is the thought that counts. She even insisted that she pay for the lunch date. My daughter knows that I eat early, breakfast at 6am, lunch at 11:30am and dinner at 3pm. This is not a fancy place. Most of their business is take-out but we sat at a table inside. Order and pick-up at the counter. When your order is ready, you get a call. We ordered the "Roasted Pork sandwich" $16 which we split. I usually do not eat much at one time so a half of a sandwich is more than enough for lunch. The sandwich was large with rosemary/fennel, cured pork shoulder, broccoli rabe, picante provolone and served with pork jus on a fresh baked semolina bread. I found it to be a very tasty sandwich. I ate the sandwich with a bottle of "Coca Cola" $2, a drink I have enjoyed since I was a kid. The most important thing about this lunch was that my daughter was happy that she could buy me lunch and I enjoyed it. read more

Huge and delicious sub! Stopped by here on the way to the airport. Definitely didn't need to buy expensive airport food after enjoying it. If you are a steak and cheese person - this is your place to go! read more

Nothing to see here... Just a couple of easy five star sandwiches. In from out of town and after doing some homework, headed to the downtown location. Kept it simple one roast pork sandwich and one chicken cutlet sandwich. Well, not cheap, not bad at all considering it's probably two meals in terms of how big these sandwiches are. Hopefully, I get back later this summer and I'll try the steak sandwich but really enjoyed this spot read more

I finally made it here! After seeing Warios featured on Triple D, I had to make it a point to try out for myself. I'm a HUGE cheesesteak nut and made it a point to try all of the best that Philly had to offer when I lived in Pennsylvania. I ordered the Warios Way inside since the window was not open. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Not a lot of seating, but I didn't care since I was headed back to the car.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I took pics because I had a feeling this was not gonna last long. Homemade roll with sesame seeds...unreal!! Chopped sirloin drowning in homemade cheese then topped with grilled onions. No joke I was in heaven! Hands down the BEST cheesesteak I've ever had in my life. The care that goes into each sandwich comes thru with every bite. I didn't time myself, but my Warios Way didn't last 5 minutes. I would take a bite, look at the sandwich, then let out a grunt of approval. All that was missing was a beer and a pillow. I can't rave enough about this cheesesteak. They are only open Wednesday thru Sunday but I will make it here every few weeks when the craving kicks in. Try them out! You won't be sorry. Unless you don't like steak and cheese and onions wrapped in goodness. Then go have a salad lol. read more

This spot is a great hidden gem for a sandwich, located right across the street from the stadium. Given its prime location, I'm sure they get a lot of business, especially after games--it's the perfect meal after a few beers, and it tastes amazing. I ordered the Chicken Caesar Cutlet sandwich, which had a $2 upcharge for fried chicken, bringing the total to about $18. The sandwich was huge--definitely big enough to share. My friend and I each got one but ended up splitting both, and we still had leftovers. The service was what you'd expect from a busy, fast-paced sandwich shop. They take your order, there's a lot of movement and shouting, and then they call your name when it's ready. There was a long line even though there wasn't a game that day, so it's clear they have a great reputation. The place was also clean, both inside and out. I'd definitely come back! read more

Yuuuum! I was discussing Valentines Day treats with some girls at Purebarre and they suggested I try Warios...so glad I did! I got the fried chicken caesar sandwich to go and it ended up being my lunch and dinner while I watched rom coms throughout the day. The sandwich was super packed but still manageable, the chose a good bread. The chicken was crispy and the lettuce was fresh. I also got some Wario's sauce on the side to dip it in. Looking forward to trying more of the menu. read more

These guys make, hands down, the best sandwich in the city. When my wife and I moved to Columbus, there didn't seem to be a stand out place. Wario's changed that. The service is top notch. After finding out how much the owner takes care of his staff, it makes sense. There's a real pride back in their kitchen. It's the best. Yes it's expensive. It's worth it. Go get the Steak - Wario's Way. It'll change your life. Get the House Spuds. Sample it all. You won't go wrong. read more

Amazing sandwiches, and huge portions to the point that one sandwich hold be 2-3 meals easily. The potatoes were a delicious side

Service: workers are rude, but this is an order at the counter and go spot so there isn't any service beyond that point. Ambiance/Atmosphere: it's basic inside, grab your stuff and go with minimal seating. It's a pick up a sandwich for lunch place. Food: Regular cheesesteak isn't good. Warios way is a must order if you're wanting a cheesesteak and definitely a worlds level better upgrade. Warios way is great. It's cheesy, well seasoned, packed full of ingredients. If you're wanting a solid cheesesteak this is the best around. I'd recommend. Warios potatoes are good. Crispy, flavorful, and spicy these are a nice change from your usual fries. If you like cheese and spicy potatoes I'd recommend ordering these warios way, but you can also get these plain. Caesar cutlet sandwich Is good. Crispy seasoned cutlets on a nice semolina roll and crispy fresh Caesar salad. I'd recommend this sandwich. read more

Saw this restaurant on Triple D, knew we had an upcoming trip to Columbus so made this a must stop. The area is so welcoming with lots of outside seating.

Wario's Cheesesteak -- The cheesesteak was absolutely delicious and packed with flavor! The meat and cheese were spot-on, but I think I'd prefer it a little less soggy next time. A crunchy pickle on the side would be a great touch, too. The only downside was the location -- parking was limited, and a drive-through option would make it even better. Overall, still a solid and tasty experience! Service was quick even though there was a line it went quite well, read more
